Merck & Co., Inc. has been performing exceptionally in the stock market with its
share price seeing robust growth, outperforming many competitors, and occasional underperformance not overshadowing its overall success. Hedge Funds appear enthusiastic about the stock, indicating its
strong momentum for the
long-term. Multiple reports suggest that the
stock is nearly fully valued, and has outperformed the industry on a year-to-date basis. However, insiders at Merck have sold significant amounts of their shares indicating potential future weakness. FDA's approval of its
Cardiovascular Disease Drug has been instrumental in pushing the stock to new highs, contributing to a nearly
5% increase in its stock. The performance of blockbuster cancer drug,
Keytruda, did lead to raised outlooks for the stock, and there are arguments among analysts whether it's appropriate to play the Merck stock ahead of its Q1 results.
Strong Keytruda and vaccine sales beat earnings expectations fuelling more investor interest. Finally,
institutional investors demonstrate strong support for the firm holding more than
77% of shares.
